What Lymphocytes (Absolute) measures
The actual number of lymphocytes per microliter, rather than their percentage.
If your Lymphocytes (Absolute) is low
Fewer lymphocytes than the range can follow acute illness, stress or some medications.
Commonly associated with
- Acute infection
- Stress
- Corticosteroids
- Immune conditions
If your Lymphocytes (Absolute) is high
More lymphocytes than the range is commonly seen with viral infections and some chronic conditions.
Commonly associated with
- Viral infection
- Recovery from infection
- Chronic conditions
Typical reference range
| Group | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Adults | 0.7 – 3.1 K/uL |
Typical adult values used by many US labs. Your own report prints the range your lab validated for its method, and that range is the one that counts. Labwise always uses the printed range first.
If it is within range
Your absolute lymphocyte count is within the range printed by your lab.
